Fog Computer

This informative text/reference presents a detailed review of the state of the art in fog computing paradigm. In particular, the book examines a broad range of important cooperative and distributed computation algorithms, along with their design objectives and technical challenges.

This book focuses on energy efficiency concerns in fog–edge computing and the requirements related to Industry 4.0 and next-generation networks like 5G and 6G. This book guides the research community about practical approaches, methodological, and moral questions in any nations’ journey to conserve energy in fog–edge computing environments. It discusses a detailed approach required to conserve energy and comparative case studies with respect to various performance evaluation metrics, such as energy conservation, resource allocation strategies, task allocation strategies, VM migration, and load-sharing strategies with state-of-the-art approaches, with fog and edge networks.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the Interdisciplinary Workshop on Trust, Identity, Privacy, and Security in the Digital Economy, DETIPS 2020; the First International Workshop on Dependability and Safety of Emerging Cloud and Fog Systems, DeSECSys 2020; Third International Workshop on Multimedia Privacy and Security, MPS 2020; and the Second Workshop on Security, Privacy, Organizations, and Systems Engineering, SPOSE 2020; held in Guildford, UK, in September 2020, in conjunction with the 25th European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2020.
